| arimai | - Mt. Tambusisi, N.E. Sulawesi |
| Notes : |
| An odd species which appears to be an outlying member of the Group.
Talbot in his Monograph places the species in the belladonna
Group, but Yagishita has moved it to the aglaia Group. I will
retain it here for the time being. It is one of, if not the largest of all Delias. |
